How frequent should we make love? And when is the right time during my cycle?

Although ovulation can be predicted, the egg could drop unexpectedly, earlier or later. Thus, it is recommended to try to make love at least twice a week, as a general TTC schedule. Women with irregular cycle should make love even not on ovulation time window. Fortunately, sperm are able to live a few days in a woman’s body.

An optimized “timed intercourse” is taken place from 2 - 3 days before ovulation. For example, a woman who has an ideal 28 day period is likely to ovulate on day 14 which means that, a scheduled intercourse should start from cycle day 10 to cycle day 14. BBT charting and monitoring fertility signs can facilitate learning your unique and non-hypothetical cycle traits.
